Updated

I am on week 2 and the nausea is really bad. Vomiting and constipation at times have started. I am losing weight. I'm also 14 months post gastric sleeve surgery. I need help with the nausea. Any suggestions?

Ginger chews really helped for me. Also noticed the nausea was worse if I ate fatty food. Hope that helps.

I think Ginger is an excellent option for alleviating nausea as suggested by post #1.

[1]"The Effectiveness of Ginger in the Prevention of Nausea...":
ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4818021

Peppermint essential oil tends to help me with nausea as well.

[2]"Study of the Effect of Mint Oil on Nausea...":
ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3560544

But I'd also consider looking into Ginseng if you need a trifecta of remedies.

Hope this info helps!
